Facing north at an average 9°, Elliot Slope gets about 71% of the winter sun that flat ground at Mount Sunapee does, December through March. That's shadier than 70% of the runs we've measured, and the 22nd shadiest named run at Mount Sunapee. Its top sits at 1,670 feet.
Shaded snow stays colder and drier, so it holds powder longer after a storm and is slower to crust over or turn to slush in spring. Shading from ridges and trees isn't counted yet.
